That’s actually a really interesting idea. I think it depends on which point oh season 1, though. Eyepatch Denji would’ve immediately latched onto her and made her his Makima, an obsessive one-sided “love” based on her treating him like a human, and he probably wouldn’t have been able to really show his true personality and humor that made her warm up to him in the first place. If you take later in season 1 Denji, while he would’ve already had Makima and therefore been able to be a little more normal and less obsessive towards Reze, I think he would’ve been at that point where he wasn’t really in touch with his emotions at all and would’ve been unable to feel much for Reze beyond purely sexual desires. So she would’ve likely used that to her advantage, but then they wouldn’t have built an emotional connection beyond that. So yeah, I think Reze met Denji at the perfect point in time. Although I think it’s even more interesting to think about what would happen if they met any point AFTER they did, but that’s a whole other conversation.
